God Is My… (Psalms), 3

~ God Is My God ~

Introduction  ~  Previously from July 16, 2017 through January 6, 2019 ALN posted a series of 60 posts of “Jesus is…,” and now we look exclusively at who “God is…” from the Book of Psalms.  While not a complete list these posts occur are in the same order they are in the Psalms. 

Passage  ~  “Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation.  Give heed to the voice of my cry, my King and my God, for to You I will pray.  My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning I will direct it to You, and I will look up” (Psalm 5:1-3).    

Significance  ~  God has promised to listen to the genuine plea from those who know they need strength outside themselves.  Have you gone to God for help?  Have you accepted His Son as your Savior?  If so, are you regularly in the school of prayer—not just for help but also for praise and adoration? 

Comment  ~  It is only when a person realizes that they are not the end all that they turn to God.  The self-sufficient, self-reliant person, by definition, does not have a felt need for God.  Have you noticed that many times when God uses an individual mightily for His kingdom that person has first traveled through some deep waters?
